In this latest installment of my video diary covering the build of my RC4WD Chevy Blazer I compare the new Blazer body with my RC4WD Cruiser, RCModelex D110 and my Hi-Lux truggy.
I also look at starting the detailing on the radiator grill, rear tailgate and dicuss paint choices for the colour scheme.
In this video I explore the suspension modifications I’ve made to the Trail Finder 2 chassis in order to more closely match that of the actual Chevy Blazer.
I also highlight some of the modification you have to make to mount the body including a useful time-saving tip.
In the last few days, San Jose based scale RC manufacturers RC4WD have released a new hard body kit based on the mid 70s Chevy K5 Blazer.
The body kit is designed to fit on their existing Trail Finder 2 chassis with some minor modifications.
I’ve been lucky enough to be one of the first customers to get my hands on the kit so I took the opportunity to shoot an unboxing video. I’ll also be documenting progress of my build via video and on some of the most popular scale RC forums.
